Everything. My mothers mother was a bartender. My mothers father was a giant allegedly who looked like me but way bigger. It was said in a fight with my uncle my uncle hid in a vw beetle and my mothers father flipped it. Most likely false but who knows. He left my mothers mother before my mom was born. Disappeared. My mothers mother died of brain cancer before i was born.
My fathers mother was a court clerk in new jersey born to otalian immigrants. My fathers father was born in the dirt on newark to irish immigrants who worked the docks. My fathers father ascended to a senior vice president position at lever brothers in NYC and worked in manhattan raising his 6 kids. He was abusive and hated everything that wasnt PROPER and etc. Excessively strict because he came from nothing he took alot out on my father his eldest son. In being strict to teach his lids to be upstanding citizens it backfired and my father rebelled.
My fathers farher died last year from old age. Was like 89 or something. My fathers mother is still alive at 86ish.
